Banner Engineering SMA30PELBQ5 Barrel Photoelectric Sensor

Banner Engineering SMA30PELBQ5 is a long-range opposed-mode emitter in the SM30 30 mm barrel family, delivering up to 150 m (492 ft) of detection range when paired with a Banner receiver. It operates from AC or DC power with universal input: 12–240 V AC or 10–30 V DC, enabling flexible installation on lines powered from different supplies. The emitter uses an infrared LED sensing beam and is housed in a rugged 30 mm diameter barrel with IP67 protection and a NEMA 4X rating, making it suitable for dusty or wet factory environments. As an emitter, SMA30PELBQ5 is designed to be used in conjunction with Banner's opposite-mode receivers to form a through-beam system that detects interruptions across the sensing gap. The part designation indicates a specific barrel/connector configuration for easy integration with Banner's SM30 ecosystem and compatible amplifiers or QD variants, simplifying field deployment on conveyors, robotic cells, or packaging lines where long-range, reliable sensing is required.
